Audi A1 e-tron buoys up German Olympic team
The Saudi Gazette Published in The Saudi Gazette on 28 - 07 - 2012

DURING the Olympic Games, Audi A1 e-tron will attract attention in London. As partner of the German Olympic Sports Confederation (DOSB) and the National Paralympic Committee Germany (DBS), Audi presented the Olympic squad with an Audi A1 e-tron in the German colors. It is an electric car with a range extender. The A1 e-tron reaches a maximum speed of 130 km/h thanks to its power of 102 hp. If the battery power is exhausted a compact combustion engine, the range extender, recharges the battery as required and in doing so increases the range to up to 250 kilometers.
The A1 is used as an exhibition car and reinforces the shuttle service between the German House and the MS Deutschland cruise ship, which Audi equips with a total of 60 vehicles. The German House itself will include an Audi Lounge at which athletes and visitors can meet. The Ingolstadt based automobile manufacturer recently extended its partnership with the DOSB and DBS to the end of 2016. – SG
